Reverse Washi Window Birthday card

Hello, Hetty here with a quick and very easy
birthday card with a lot of washi tape and a FREE
digital  subway art stamp from Create with TLC.

I love my washi tape, don't you?!!
And this reversed washi window technique
from the June/July 2014 newsletter is wonderful
for an easy or quick card.

I need some more birthday cards and quick,
so i asked my friend from Create with TLC
if she had a birthday subway art for me and
she did and dit is a freebie today at her and 
my blog as well, 
so hop over for some more inspiration.

Creative greetings!

Background Stained Glass





Good morning friends.  It's Beth Norman here with this week's Technique of the Week, Background Stained Glass.  My lovely background stamp is one of the many background stamps from the Technique Junkies Stamps.  The sentiment is also from the Technique Junkies Stamps.

I stamped out my background stamp and coloured with Copic markers.  The sentiment uses the Whisped Frames technique, one of my go-to techniques.

I've enjoyed seeing the DT members and subscribers have been doing with this technique and hope to see yours soon too.

Have a great week!

Brayered Rub-Ons

 
 
 
Hello again, It's Jackie K  with an example of the Brayered Rub-Ons Technique!
You can find it in this years Feb/Mar Issue.
 
                                          A little early for a Halloween card you may be thinking?
Well, not if you have 12 grandchildren like I do. Mind you, the oldest is 27 years old but he still gets a card as do all the others for every occasion. What are crafty grandmothers for after all?
 
I have not inserted the card yet because for some unknown reason the computer won't put it where I want it so bear with me. I am going to give you the details and then insert the card.
I used colored rub-ons for this card which led me to thinking...you really could use stickers if you had to.
I would tell you the maker of these rub-ons but in my ever effort to be tidy I threw out the packaging before I wrote the details down. I CAN tell you that the ghost that was stamped on vellum is from Stampendous. I have had this stamp for eons and I still smile whenever I use it. I brayered over the card with ColorBox Amber pigment ink.
OK so after wading through all this verbage, I hope you are not disappointed in the card.  Thanks for looking and I will see you in two weeks!

TOTW - Background Stained Glass

Happy Sunday!

Tricia here with this weeks technique of the week, Background Stained Glass.

I decided to use this technique to create a lovely backdrop for this sentiment that I love from Stampin Up!  I used a Stampin Up! background stamp as well as Stampin! Markers.


I hope you have a crafty day and we would love to see your creations!!

Silver on Gold

The perfect technique for cards with a movie theme
is Silver on Gold from the August/September 2014 issue
of the Technique Junkies Newsletter.
Both cards are made with this technique onm
the background. Paper and stamps are from 
Club Scraps Cinema! kit.
On this card I have some gold
and silver stars on the background
 (this happend by accident, but also works
perfect). So I am thinking of making a reverse card
with silver stamping and gold background.

This card is only with the gold.
Many gold stars in the movies!!

I hate throwing away the cut offs and
try to use those for decorating the inside.

If you want some more ideas on these them, Club Scrap
is haveing a blog hop today. You can start at the 

Thanks for stopping by.
Have a creative day!

TOTW Waxy Windows

 
 
Hi Everyone, Jackie K here with two examples of the Waxy Window technique.
I have always loved this resist technique as the possibilities are only limited by the number of embossing folders you have, and the number of Kalidecolor stamp pads you possess, LOL!
 
 
 
This card uses stamps from Inkadinkado and Club Scrap. Aren't the colors vibrant?
It is really fun watching the resist form as you brayer the color on.
 
 
 
The stamps on this card are from PSX and Club Scrap. Once again very vibrant colors. As you can see, this resist isn't as pronounced as the other one. Choice of EF perhaps, not sure. It's all an experiment to me. I keep forgetting not to have a white card base when I post on here. It gets lost in the background.
 
I hope you have enjoyed my examples and that they inspire you to give this a try.
I will see you back here soon if I survive the last of the summer in the desert!
Happy Stamping!

Waxy Window

Hi bloggers, Ann Clack here!  This coming week the Technique of the week is Waxy Window.  So, I thought I'd start the week off with a fresh simple sample of Waxy Window.  I've been on a mission to try and use some of my stamps that have NSI.....Never Seen Ink!  I'm sure that some of you have this problem too!  The stamps are from Stampin' Up!  I know that they aren't new but they hadn't been used until today!  I wanted some colors that remind me of the later days of summer so picked a red flower with some orange in the design too.  A little hand drawing around the inner border of the mask made the image pop out a little more.  Enjoy!
